Crusoe AI campus near Port of Victoria
Crusoe plans a 1,600-acre AI data center campus near the Port of Victoria to be powered by a Blue Energy gas plant that would later convert to nuclear, up to 1.5 GW of reactor capacity. Also known as: Crusoe Victoria, Blue Energy / Crusoe gas-to-nuclear campus.
Who is behind it
The record, newest first
Blue Energy signed with GE Vernova Hitachi to advance design and licensing; NEI reported phases of about 1 GW of gas turbines (2030) and up to 1.5 GWe of BWRX-300 reactors (2032), with a final investment decision expected in 2027. (Nuclear Engineering International, Aug. 17, 2026)
NucNet reported Blue Energy could deploy up to 1.5 GW of reactor capacity to serve the Crusoe site. (NucNet, Nov. 3, 2025)
Crusoe and Blue Energy announced a partnership for a 1,600-acre Crusoe AI campus near the Port of Victoria, powered first by natural gas as early as 2028 and by nuclear by 2031; Crusoe later corrected the county to Calhoun. (Crusoe, Oct. 30, 2025)
Conflicts and open questions
- Data center MW not stated; the 1.5 GW and 2.5 GWe figures are power plant capacity, so mw left null.
- No county, port or state permit records found yet; status from company announcements.
- Exact site not published. Crusoe places it at the Port of Victoria but in Calhoun County; the port's turning basin itself sits in Victoria County, so the pin is set approximately inside Calhoun County and is not the site.
